[Verse 1]
Gm D#/G
The planets are shaking their heads at the earth
F Dm D#
Oh what has become of their sister in blue
Gm D#maj7
Don't be deterred, agent provocateur
F Dm D#
As you parade while you know someone's aiming at you
Fsus4 F Fsus4 F
People's backstreet ways fall into place
D#
Tokens to be found
Fsus4 F Fsus4 F Dm
They track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
A# Dm
Make your choice, they wanna make you raise your voice
Gm7 D#sus2
to fight for a change: It's always the same
A# Dm/A
And what if this life is feeling like a world of bliss to you
D# F
And you don't feel like going against the grain today
[Chorus 1]
Am F G Dm
I believe
F C/E G
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
Am G/B Em F
To defy defiance and swallow evil
G Dm
Here come the shadow eaters
Am F G Dm
I believe
F C/E G
although you shouldn't watch them without safety glasses
Am G/B Em F
They strike at sunrise, Angel squad
G Dm
Here come the shadow eaters
[Verse 2]
Gm D#/G
One hundred seventy five zillion and three thousand eight
F Dm D#
Hundred and twenty nine lives in history approximately
Gm D#/G
Laid at the door of Him who never knew and if He did
F Dm D#
I'm not quite sure that He would quite have agreed
Fsus4 F Fsus4 F
backstreet ways, into place
D#
Tokens to be found
Fsus4 F Fsus4 F Dm
track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
A# Dm
Chase down grief to wallow in and make believe
Gm7 D#sus2
You ain't gonna win whatever way: We're all gonna die
A# Dm/A
Mean and sly, and somewhere in between there's life they say
D# F
But if we're not made to overshadow black?
[Chorus 2]
Am F G Dm
I believe
F C/E G
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
Am G/B Em F
To defy defiance and conquer evil
G Dm
Here come the shadow eaters
Am F G Dm
I believe
F C/E G
you don't see'em with or without safety glasses
Am G/B Em F
They strike at sunrise, Angel battalion
G Dm
Here come the shadow eaters

[Chorus 3]
Bm G A Em
I believe
G D/F# A
Don't think you'll ever see them with your naked eye
Bm A/C# F#m G
And they're tired of showing off on demand
A Em
They are shadow eaters
Bm G A Em
I believe
G D/F# A
although we never see them, cause they fly from reason
Bm A/C# F#m G A
Tiny but forceful, I tell you
Em
Those shadow eaters
G A Bm A Gm
